Strokes are weird. The severity varies from "big deal" to "last deal". I've had 2 but am still vertical. I'm a fairly active guy, but this one smoked my endurance....that is taking some fixing & progress is slow, but improving. ( my typing is still a trial). I went from being unable to lift my left arm over my head to doing that with 10lbs.....but only 7 times thus far. My walking gait is all F ed up.....and the weather is a limiting factor. A tread mill incredibly booooooring.

The first thing I did with the new car was take it thru EPA ( the SIL drove). It passed, no problem. The Flying Miata set up uses a piggy back controller so the stock ECU is intact for testing plug in......I did some research before buying. The FM setup is a pricey sombytch.....I have a receipt, but no dyno graph. I talked at the installer & they didn't do one......go figure. The boost gauge shows about 7psi......things happen quick in the lower gears.

The Tien coilovers have semi-stout springs but are acceptable. The ride motions are
decent.....no need for Bilsteins yet....and AX event will tell the tale.....if the old bod will allow it.

Old joke from Sammy........what the hell, I'm old.
